Abstract

The invention provides methods and compositions for a mutein aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase that preferentially charges a tRNA with a non-natural amino acid. Also provided are methods for incorporating the non-natural amino acid, para-methylazido-L-phenylalanine into a protein and further conjugating a biologically active adduct to the para-methylazido-L-phenylalanine.
